Fig. 1

Results for the GCMT and ISC catalogues are shown in panels (a, b and c, d) respectively, also with respect to different magnitude bins. Seismicity is classified into normal (green), strike-slip (red), thrust (blue) according to the Aki-Richards definition29, while transpressive and transtensional events are respectively in yellow and in cyan, as represented in the legends on the right panels. Error bars in (a, c) stand for 2σ.
